You look like you’re managing.
You show up. You meet deadlines. You hold conversations. You keep the plates spinning.
But underneath?
You’re tired.
Irritable.
Overstimulated.
On the edge of shutdown.
Burnout doesn’t always arrive as collapse.
Sometimes it arrives quietly — disguised as “I’m just busy” or “I just need to try harder.”
For many neurodivergent women, burnout develops gradually after years of masking, adapting, over-performing, and pushing through environments that don’t truly fit.
What once looked like coping slowly becomes survival.
Why Burnout Hits Differently
Neurodivergent burnout is not simply stress.
It can involve:
-
Emotional numbness or heightened reactivity
-
Increased sensory sensitivity
-
Executive dysfunction and mental fog
-
Withdrawal from social situations
-
Irritability or shutdown
-
Loss of motivation for things you once cared about
When your nervous system has been in high alert for too long, it eventually pushes back.
This workshop explores what’s happening beneath the surface — psychologically and neurologically — so that burnout can be understood rather than judged.
What We’ll Explore
-
The hidden signs of high-functioning burnout
-
The impact of chronic masking and over-adapting
-
How stress builds in the nervous system over time
-
The difference between stress, depression, and neurodivergent burnout
-
Why “rest” alone often isn’t enough
-
Practical, compassionate strategies to reset sustainably
This is not about doing more.
It’s about understanding your limits and building a life that works with your brain and body.
Who Is This Workshop For?
This session is for adult women who:
-
Feel capable on the outside but depleted inside
-
Suspect they may be in burnout (or on the brink of it)
-
Have ADHD, autism, or identify as neurodivergent
-
Are tired of pushing through and want a different way forward
-
Want practical tools grounded in psychology and lived experience
You do not need a formal diagnosis to attend.
You are not lazy.
You are not weak.
You are not failing.
Sometimes coping just stops working.
And that’s the signal to change the system — not yourself.
